The board: GNU Altered Genetics, I would have preffered to get a free ride board but availabilty & selection wasnt that great so I ended up with the GNU which is a free style board but is also excellent on the trails. Maybe someday I will be good enough or brave enough & use it @ a park & pipe........NOT!
We took lessons @ a local ski hill & practice @ different spots around my area but the last trip to the Rockies was to Jasper, which according to experienced riders is a better place for beginners compared to Banff or Lake Louis.
The only experience I have with Banff/Sunshine Village was 2 yrs ago when the boys took their one and only skiing lesson, it was spring break then so it was very busy. I didnt pay much attention to anything else then because I never thought I'd ever ski or snowbaord, they did have a nice lounge though.
